Cheap Suits
You bought your baby that cheap perfume,
that will chase everybody out of the room
You gave your baby a cheap anniversary gift,
then took her to a takeout joint where you don’t have to tip
You brought your baby flowers plucked from a garden,
didn’t have to spend no plastic, they got personally sent
You took your baby to the one dollar matinee,
it had a promotional free popcorn giveaway
You had your baby go get your cheap suits cleaned,
while you sat at home bank counting your beans
